Taking on heavier subject matter as inspiration and rethinking the way clothing is produced, Mzansi’s designers put together meaningful collections this season.

Statement tees have always been a go-to provocateur on the catwalk, but at SAFW they were the perfect way to highlight matters tugging at the hearts of local designers.

Palesa Mokubung of Manthso’s pet cause was female empowerment à la the designer’s recent collaboration with Miss Universe Zozibini Tunzi and 1st for Women, which saw her release a collection of tees emblazoned with the word"Fearless" to encourage SA women to live their lives fearlessly.Manthso’s slogan tees encourage SA women to be fearless.

However, perhaps the most memorable slogan was the one on the shirt sported by designer Michael Reid of Xavier Sadan, which read “De Mil Lives Forever”. This heartfelt message paid homage to the late SA design legend, Coenraad De Mol, who passed away in May.Image:A fabulous fad for fullness dominated some of this season’s collections, speaking to our desire to once again grace the soirées that feel like a distant dream since the pandemic began.
